Thanks for adjusting and updating the schedule, Andrea.  I'm way
behind in my mailbox and everything else, that was a real help.

But last night I did remove that OOM and fork-bomb topic you
mischievously added in my name ;-)  Yes, I did propose an OOM topic
against my name in the working list I sent you a few days ago, but by
Monday had concluded that it would be pretty silly for me to get up
and spout the few things I have to say about it, in the absence of
every one of the people most closely involved and experienced.  And on
fork-bombs I've even less to say.

Of course, none of these sessions are for those named facilitators to
lecture the assembled company for half an hour.  We can bring it back
it there's demand on the day: but right now I'd prefer to keep it as
an empty slot, to be decided when the time comes.  After all, those FS
people, they appear to thrive on empty slots!
